Boiler Operation Inspection, Repairs, and Alterations
and Maintenance
PD769 ASME Standards Course NEW!
BOILERS AND PRESSURE VESSELS � PUBLIC COURSES Boiler operation is complicated, especially for modern boilers that are
fully automatic. Safety, efficiency and constant generation of steam or
hot water depend on the smooth operation of the boiler. Moreover,
some jurisdictions have laws and rules on the boiler operation and
boiler operators. Maintenance is performed on the boilers to increase
efficiency, ensure safety and prevent unscheduled shutdowns. A
maintenance program should be established based on the type of boiler,
history and age.
This course provides participants with comprehensive knowledge of
boiler operation and maintenance from the codes and standards, in
addition to the manufacturer’s recommendations covered by the
following codes and standards:
• ASME Section VI – 2015, Rules for Care and Operation of Heating
Boilers
• ASME Section VII – 2015, Recommended Guidelines for the Care
of Power Boilers
• ASME QFO-1 – 1998 (R2006) Standard for the Qualification and
Certification of High Fossil Fuel Fired Plants
Each participant receives ASME B&PVC, Section VII, Recommended
Guidelines for the Care of Power Boilers, and Heating Boiler Operator’s
Manual (McGraw-Hill) by Dr. Mohammad A. Malek.
You Will Learn To
• Describe fundamentals and classifications of boilers
• Identify boiler auxiliaries and appurtenances
• Describe functions of controls and safety devices
• Identify the requirements of boiler rooms
• Explain both power and heating boiler operation
• Explain how to complete an operation logsheet
• Describe essential procedures relating power boiler maintenance
• Identify essential procedures relating to heating boiler maintenance
• Identify appropriate water treatment methods
• Identify causes of explosions and failures of boilers
• Explain how to develop and establish a boiler maintenance program
Who Should Attend
Boiler engineers, boiler operators; mechanical engineers, maintenance
engineers; plant engineers, process engineers; boiler consultants, boiler
contractors; as well as plant supervisors and plant managers

of Boilers
PD770 ASME Standards Course NEW!
This purpose of inspection is to determine operational integrity, ensure
reliability and improve performance of boiler plants. Boilers are required
to be inspected at a regular interval by an inspector who is qualified
by a jurisdiction or by the plant owner. The inspection is performed in
accordance with the jurisdictional requirements, inspection standards
or national codes. This course provides a comprehensive knowledge
of boiler inspection from codes and standards. It covers jurisdictional
requirements, code requirements and methods for repairs and alteration
to boilers covered by the following codes and standards:
• NB23 – 2015 National Board Inspection Code
• ASME POM 101 – 2013 Performance – Related Outage Inspection
• ASME POM 102 – 2014 Operating Walkdowns of Power Plants
• ASME Section VII – 2015 Recommended Guidelines for the Care
of Power Boilers
• API RP 573 – 2013 Inspection of Fired Boilers and Heaters
Each participant receives a copy of ASME POM 101–2013, Performance
– Related Outage Inspection, and Power Boiler Design, Inspection and
Repair, by Dr. Mohammad A. Malek.
You Will Learn To
• Identify classifications and types of boilers
• Identify the appropriate standards for inspection, repair and alteration
• Describe jurisdictional requirements for inspection, repair and
alteration
• Explain how to inspect boilers using the latest technology, such as
NDE methods and drones
• Explain how to conduct inspection and testing of pressure relief
valves
• Describe how to perform outage inspection and walkdown inspection
• Explain causes of failures and deterioration mechanism
• Perform calculations for inspection, repair and alteration
• Develop and write reports on inspection, examination and testing
• Explain how to develop and establish mechanical reliability program
for boiler plants
Who Should Attend
Personnel responsible for inspection, repair and alteration of all types
of boilers, including inspectors (novice, intermediate and experienced),
refinery inspectors, mechanical engineers, reliability engineers,
maintenance engineers, oiler consultants, boiler repairers, plant
supervisors and plant managers
